This fully revised and expanded edition delves into the profound concept of vulnerability, a fundamental aspect in early intervention. It explores the intricate relationship between vulnerability and individuals, communities, and society as a whole. In addition to its comprehensive coverage, the book includes new chapters dedicated to children's voices, young people and vulnerability, and working with vulnerable parents.
By introducing students to a wide-ranging debate surrounding vulnerability, risk, and resilience, this text examines how policymakers have conceptualized these concepts, with a particular emphasis on early intervention as a means of preventing social issues from escalating later in life. The book adopts a case study approach, presenting chapters that explore vulnerability from sociological, psychological, and social policy perspectives. These chapters are followed by examples that shed light on various contexts, such as leaving care, victims of violence, sexual abuse, and the Internet.
The primary objective of this book is to support students in engaging with and critically evaluating the conceptualization and practical application of vulnerability in professional practice. It is an invaluable resource for anyone aspiring to or currently working within the children's workforce, encompassing a diverse range of professions such as social work, health care, education, and youth work. By providing a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of vulnerability, this book equips students with the skills and knowledge necessary to effectively address the needs of vulnerable individuals and communities.
